Green, digital, and sustainable transition for technology and process optimization in energy intensive industries

In line with the updated European Innovation Agenda, actions supported by GreenStep will test new approaches to increase the capacity of innovation ecosystems in regions, with the aim of intensifying interregional cross-border cooperation and strengthening integration into EU value chains. GreenStep activities will also facilitate cross-border cooperation between innovation ecosystem actors at regional level to increase their capacity to participate in future calls under the Interregional Innovation Investment Facility and other EU support policies. Priority is given to capacity development actions and pilot investment projects related to the green and digital transition and smart industry. The Liberec Region will benefit from strengthening the visibility of the regional innovation ecosystem and its actors and building key links at European level. The GreenStep project will also bring a number of opportunities for regional companies and innovation actors, strengthening the entire regional innovation ecosystem and ensuring greater dynamism and sustainable growth for business and R&D actors.
